Maybe he was distracted? Not so great timing by Great Clips! :LOL: https://athlonsports.com/college-basketball/kansas-hunter-dickinson-makes-nil-announcement-amid-ncaa-tournament

I'm sorry, this exchange just has me laughing inside which is why I visit these boards on occasion. I'm actually impressed with how civil most of you have been. Congrats! Everyone has an opinion on something like DEI. Poor, golfing18now had no idea what he was starting, but was smart enough...

He can be our Travis Hunter! Kicker, kick blocker, goal line line jumper, end of half/game jump baller, and why not try him at left tackle?

I was going to guess he goes down to the G5 level for more playing time. Maybe Northwestern is similar now? They seem to be one of the few B1G teams the portal & NIL hasn't really helped. Makes a lot of sense he is moving closer to home and getting a masters degree from a world class...

I disagree completely. Go to eight games like the SEC. Schedule two non-conf P4 games to keep things fun and interesting and help with the accuracy of national rankings. I really enjoyed the two game series with UNC. Am I alone? I used that game all year as one data point as to how good the...

Like you mention, a head coach can always burn a timeout if an important player just needs a minute. It just makes the use of timeouts even more strategic. Maybe they won't have so many to burn at the end of the game freezing the kicker! Sort of ironic, some players fake injuries to save the...

Maybe he can’t walk on water, but he can swim in mayo!

I don't see that as a bad thing. Make men's football and basketball players employees and include a requirement that they take classes and be in good standing academically. I'm also required to take continuing ed and be in good standing to stay in my profession. I think that can be figured...

Miami or Oregon would get an injury and just buy someone off another team to fill the hole in the middle of the week. I don't think this every happens because it's too crazy, but it's the worst case scenario which is why there do have to be at least SOME transfer rules.

Wouldn't the NAACP be against Title IX in this situation? Black men make up about 50% of D-1 football players and close to 60% of basketball players while only being about 14% of the US population. They are finally on the verge of being paid at least something remotely close to what they are...

I agree. Even more nonsensical. Everything has its limits. I'm thinking we've finally reached it. As Big Dawg just said, football (and men's basketball) will be carved off somehow. Let's assume the federal law around Title IX is finally addressed. What is the outcome that you would...

I'm fine with everything becoming a "club" sport except for the ones that can sustain themselves financially and my guess is it goes more that way. I agree with the post from Crosby that people are not going to be as likely to give if their money is spread out to things they are not interested...

Good to hear! I was starting to worry that I couldn't even joke about tall, handsome, athletic, super successful white guys and their hot girlfriends anymore. I was wondering what was left! :LOL:

I think you might be taking my post too seriously.😉

Based on his recent purchase of a Lamborghini and choice in girlfriends, I don't think he'll be "investing" the money in the way you suggest...

My original post has devolved into a lot of expansion talk which I always find interesting, but I currently am very happy with the size of the B1G and don't see a lot of value in expanding further in the near term. We have the majority of the largest TV markets in the US tied up. If we take on...

A young guy that has had the chance to work under Hetherman and many other smart DCs over time. Let's see how he decides to implement the best of their ideas and strategies. It's not like when people leave all their knowledge leaves with them. Their best ideas will likely be used by the...

I am surprised by no D's, reading this board during the year would lead me to believe they are out there. Do they lose interest during the year and move onto things that bring them more joy?

Are we the haves (in the B1G) or have nots (not Miami or Oregon, etc.)? A large number of fans nationally probably wish they had the Gophers' money problems.

I'm an A- like you. I just think it's a lot harder to win here than people realize. The worst 300 mile recruiting radius in the B1G is hard to get out of my head. Five pro sports teams competing for fan attention and dollars, something our regional rivals don't have to deal with. He has done...
